I am too cheap to fork over $16 for a hex adapter for deburring. I was looking for alternatives and found a hex chuck adapter but those were going to be more expensive than the bit from Avery. After lots of grumbling about not wanting to pay $16 for a bit, I came up with this dirt cheap/free idea.
Step 1: Go to your peanut jar full of random nuts.
Step 2: Find all of the 1/4"-28 thread nuts.
Step 3: Hit it with some break cleaner and screw the nut on your countersink bit.
Step 4: Use a 1/4" Hex 11mm or 7/16 socket and get back to deburring!
I can't believe I didn't think of this sooner!
